DESCRIBES STEPS IN PROCESS OF PRODUCING EDUCATIONAL FILMS AS CARRIED OUT BY EBF...DISCUSSES VARIOUS PRODUCTION ACTIVITIES, INCLUDING SCRIPTING, SHOOTING, EDITING & SOUNDING, & REFERS TO WORK OF LOCATION CREWS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD. Made to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Encyclopaedia Britannica Films.
Ken Smith notes regretfully that: This film begins promisingly, with Mr. McGuffey Reader materializing out of a picture frame to help our protagonist learn what it takes to make educational films. But since this is an Encyclopaedia Britannica production, this promising opening goes nowhere -- and the film quickly becomes dry as dust. Lots of clips from other Britannica films, mostly dull dull dull. High point: The human larynx as seen from inside a woman's throat. This film may have historical interest for educational filmmakers, but it's not very entertaining for anyone else.
